hi all! so - good news - today i was officially hired! my official title is DC Development Assistant (i believe) sounds good - right? well either way i am excited! i've been at NDN since sept and this semester has been great (much better than last sem with the intern from hell - tom)! curious about ndn? check it out at www.newdem.org. i am mass thrilled about getting a job, less than thrilled about becoming a grown up - but i can always live in denial =) now begins the hunt for what to do with all the extra time that i'll have! i don't quite know what to do with myself. i need to develop a hobby. i think they are starting a softball team at work, i don't know how good at softball i am - but i want to wait and see who else is going to be on it, right now some of my non-favorite people are and i'd like to wait and see if there who else joins up.

the apt is coming along, hopefully more news on that later!

i have 4 papers to write this weekend, and next week is my last week of classes, EVER. how scary is that? i wonder where the last 22 years of my life went . . . but before i can graduate and go completely into the working world i still have 4 papers, 2 finals, 10 class sessions, and 1 thesis to go! so while it's happening fast, there is still a lot that has to get done! but i am not worried, cause after that i can read what i want and watch movies all the time and my life will be a blessed existence! score.
